Not to mention things like Cloudflare, AWS, and GCP.

I understand what you're saying but it feels wrong to lump Cloudflare in with Google and Amazon. Clouflare, thus far anyway, has been mostly a force of good for the internet.

So was Google in its first decade or so. Hell, I'll even grant that AWS, GCP and k8s have been mostly benevolent. But these parties becoming near monopolies for hosting or routing is costing a price of centralization.
